Stryker News and Gossip.

What do you think -- is this company going to survive and thrive? Are they looking to expand their staff, or do you think layoffs are inevitable?

How does Stryker stack up against the competition?

yes, they are already doing layoffs in the imaging division. not a good company to work for!

If you're a temp/contract, you have a good chance of layoff if the company looks like they may not meet their quarterly goal. Permanent employees aren't laid off often, although plenty and I mean PLENTY leave on their own volition because they just don't like working there.

Is PIP used as a lightning rod at Stryker Mahwah?

I wish I had more knowledge, but I don't think most would advertise they were on a PIP even if they were. I do know that it's used at Stryker Mahwah and is the preferred method of letting a permanent employee know to find work elsewhere than just plain getting fired. It's the temps that can (and often do) get completely blindsided with getting laid off.

I was going to apply for a Customer Service job but after talking with my dad and seeing this I am assuming being a college grad that I should look elsewhere first... I am getting laid off at my company at the end of this week. Any suggestions on where to look? Major- Business Mgmt
